Panasonic HPX500 Menue for LCD Display

I just purchased a used HPX500. The LCD Display appears to be 4x3 while in HD mode, and also is MCR (reading the Card) mode. It says it is in AUTO in Blue, but the LCD screen is not automatically changing over to 16x9 or leterbox. Blue seems to be the "lock out" you cant change me color in the menu. Has anyone seen this before? How can I correct this. The manual says the LCD screen will automatically change over its aspect ratio when it senses it. Not happening.
